摘要
Hydatid pulmonary embolism is a rare but serious condition. It complicates the rupture of a hydatid cyst in the venous circulation returning from the liver or rupture of an intracardiac hydatid cyst of the right heart. Multiple and unique cysts can be encountered. The objective of this study was to report a rare entity of pulmonary embolism and describe its appearance on the chest CT angiography. We report five cases of hydatid pulmonary embolism with an array of explorations. Selective imaging, particularly CT chest angiography, established the diagnosis and allowed search for other localizations. There is no established therapeutic consensus and the prognosis is poor.
